Default New Tires & TPMS

I am putting new tires on my stock rims and will make sure to put the rims back in their original locations. Do the TPS's require any kind of service work?

They shouldn't even need to be retrained if you put them back where they were. How old are they?

Now would be a good time to replace them as they are getting to the age that the batteries will start running down. The best place I've found pricewise is www.gmpartshouse.com

Buy them from the Tire Rack, I just bought a set of 18" & 19" Wheels Tires with new TPMS this past Monday, and they are due in tomorrow.
Great Price and service.
Good Luck on any returns from ebay

As long as they were working in the first place and you put them back in the same location as before, no reprogramming will be needed.

The date of manufacture is stamped on the back. So yes you DO know the age.

If you don't replace them, at least replace the o-ring.
